I'm officially back from my weekend getaway. I will post about it soon, when I have pictures...I promise.
I think I'm officially in a rut, and I hate that. I'm trying to pin point where and what is exactly in the rut...which is frustrating and requires I evaluate my life. No good. I'll apologize to those friends who had to to hear it in real life...wow, what a mess. I won't go into that, cause my mind is in a hundred different places..."I've got alot on my mind!!" ( I love that movie...anyone know what it's from??)
I just got a reminder email about our work Halloween party on Friday. Let me vent about this. I love little kid Halloween. Trick or treating with little fairies and super heroes, free candy, old scary movies, ghost jello, dinner in a pumpkin, donuts on the cat tail. (sorry, those memories will only make sense to my family) I hate adult Halloween. Dressing up like weirdos, masks, haunted houses, GIVING away candy for free, new scary movies, and thinking its okay to dress inappropriately and call it a "costume". I cannot embrace that. So, in my adultness, I have chosen to celebrate Nevada Day instead of Halloween. Yes, Nevada Day is a real holiday and happens to fall on Halloween. And yes, I love Nevada, enough to miss it's current heat and know the state song. Do you know your state song? Ha.
So here's the predicament. I do not want to dress up, decorate my cubicle and give away free candy to peoples kids at work. But I will. This is when i'm grateful for scrubs. I can "dress up" like a doctor and wear pajama like clothing to work.
Whatever. Happy Nevada Day.

HA! We had dinner in a pumpkin last night, and I'm sure this doesn't surprise you in the least, but yes, I do know my state song. "Tis the land where the columbines grow. Overlooking the plains far below. Tis the purple lone west, the land that is best, the pioneer land that I love!"
I thought the Nevada state song was Viva Las Vegas, also know as Viva Viagra now.
Oh and I tried to fight hating adult Halloween, but I think I might be there now.
viva viagra?? really?? i thought that was viagra falls....but what do i know?!?
AMEN! and AMEN!! I don't mind ressing up on Halloween... my thing is that people think they can turn into prostitutes in the sake of Halloween!! Good golly Miss Molly!
Amen on Halloween. I am having a hard time getting into Halloween this year. Really.
PS. Home means Nevada, home means the hills. Home means the sage and the pine.
